From an administrative perspective Al- Mutairi stressed the need for a clear organizational structure within the organizations, appointment of a general manager and an independent internal auditor, and documenting internal regulations and holding official meetings to ensure compliance and integrity. Regarding monitoring activities, he emphasized the importance of measuring project completion rates and ensuring they are implemented according to plan. He underscored the need for careful monitoring of external projects through reports that include photos and plans, as well as field visits to confirm implementation. He also emphasized the need to evaluate implementing agencies abroad in terms of efficiency and accreditation, focusing on a project’s sustainability rather than temporary implementation.

He asserted that charitable work in and outside Kuwait is left to the discretion of associations based on community needs and donors’ desires, indicating the ministry is committed to achieving a balance that ensures the benefit of those in need in Kuwait as well. He disclosed that the ministry has moved from prior oversight only to a combination of prior and subsequent oversight to overcome challenges and ensure complete transparency. He warned that any donation outside official platforms is a violation, even if the intention is good, and that no individual is allowed to collect donations under his name. He pointed out that the ‘Central Aid’ platform, launched by the ministry to control and regulate donations, is a pivotal tool that connects donors with beneficiaries through associations, prevents duplication, and enables accurate assessment of cases through registration via the Kuwait Mobile app. He affirmed that the ministry uses monthly reports to evaluate the performance of associations according to these indicators. “Compliant associations are granted broader powers to collect donations, while non-compliant associations are given development notes, with the possibility of taking strict measures, such as suspension, in the event of serious violations affecting donor funds,” he clarified.
